Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for March 7, 2016
Shane McMahon starts tonight's show. He recaps what happened last week, and says he's lost a respect for his father Vince after he disowned him, and calls him "an egomaniacal, miserable old bastard" who has seriously lost touch. He then says it is his destiny to own Raw and beat The Undertaker, saying that Vince's tyrannical grasp as well as that of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon must stop, and that there are more talent that are more deserving of a push that need it. We hear the gong of 'Taker's theme, followed by Vince's theme. Vince shows up, and the crowd calls him an asshole before chanting for CM Punk. Vince says there is fear in Shane's eyes, and that he will feel that fear at WrestleMania 32. After saying that Stephanie McMahon will get everything now that Shane is out of the will, Vince then talks about the night Shane went to his very first WWE event. We see a picture of father of son from way back when, then Vince takes a picture frame with said photo in it and smashes it with his foot. Vince also says that Shane's children will see him fail against The Undertaker, as a family's dreams will be shattered as 'Taker puts an end to what Vince calls "his greatest failure." Vince then sics security on Shane, and tell them to escort Shane out of the building. Shane says he'll leave peacefully as long as nobody touches him, as he says he's pretty amped up tonight. One guy gets close and tries to put a hand on them, and he gets kneed in the face. The other security guards get in the ring, but they all get beat down, too. Shane stands tall, and Vince is astounded.
Kevin Owens beat Neville with a roll-up. After the match, Owens continues to attack Neville, but that attack is cut short by the surprise appearance of Sami Zayn, who goes straight for Owens and gives him a brawl he'll never forget.
Dolph Ziggler is talking with Zack Ryder when Stephanie McMahon shows up. After talk about Shane McMahon - and a tweet that he was forced to delete due to it being "disaparaging to The Authority," Stephanie puts Dolph Ziggler in an elimination handicap match against three members of The League of Nations (Sheamus, Rusev, King Barrett, Alberto Del Rio).
Summer Rae beats Brie Bella with a roll-up after Lana shows up and distracts Brie. After the match, Lana hits Brie Bella with a Bella Buster.
Dean Ambrose shows up. He loves that he's thrown a wrench in the works on the Road to WrestleMania, and says he's hijacking the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and WrestleMania 32, and says Triple H will respect him after Roadblock. He says that he and Triple H will be doing stuff for the community together, and says Triple H will make him a suit only to realise he's not a suit guy. As soon as he says he'll be a fighting champion, Triple H shows up. He says the World Heavyweight Championship will be around his waist as long as he allows it to be. Dean Ambrose tells Triple H to suck it, but Triple H says "Roadblock" is just a name from marketing and that Ambrose is a speed bump or pothole at best. He also says Ambrose has the same problem with authority as Roman Reigns. After more insults tossed back and forth, Ambrose dares Triple H to get in the ring. Triple H says he'll do it only on his time, then puts Ambrose in a match later tonight against Bray Wyatt to teach him a lesson that "The Authority always wins."
The League of Nations (Sheamus, Rusev, King Barrett) beat Dolph Ziggler in a 3-on-1 elimination match.
We see a video package of Shane McMahon's history in the WWE.

R-Truth passes by Mark Henry on his way to give Goldust a Chicago deep dish pizza. Goldust doesn't know what's up, until Truth mentions the Golden Truth idea.

Goldust puts the pizza down and walks away, and as R-Truth says he didn't know about Goldust's exploding butt, Mark Henry takes the pizza all for himself.
Before the next match, The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) says that Y2AJ (Chris Jericho and AJ Styles) will never make it, and that they are a real team.

Triple H then deconstructs the commentary table, but when he gets back in the ring, Ambrose hits Triple H with Dirty Deeds. He then picks up the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and looks at it as he stares down Triple H from the corner.

They showed Chris Jericho and AJ Styles that they own the road. Before Bo can speak, Adam says the missing piece of the puzzle is matching biker jackets. Curtis Axel wants to know why they would need matching biker jackets. Heath likes the idea and has one in his locker room. Bo asks if they can get their names on the back before saying he is going to run Darren Young off the road so they can get them afterwards.

SmackDown Hotel! - Thursday Night SmackDown recap for September 10, 2015
The show starts with The Wyatt Family (Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Braun Strowman) entering the ring. Wyatt says that Roman Reigns is cursed, sick and infected with the desire to become "the one." He admits that Reigns is a smart man, but says Reigns does not care about the WWE Universe and certainly not about they think about him. Wyatt says that if Reigns were to become WWE World Heavyweight Champion, everyone would bow down to him "like good little sheep do." He then focuses on Dean Ambrose, saying he is cursed with loyalty to a man he believes to be a brother-in-arms, and says he's missing more than "a few pieces upstairs." He sends a warning to anyone in the back that makes contact with Ambrose and Reigns: this is about the Wyatts vs. Reigns and Ambrose, and it should stay that way. Wyatt shows us what they did to Randy Orton on Monday as part of his reasoning, before telling them that apocalypse awaits Ambrose and Reigns at Night of Champions, and tells Jimmy Uso - Ambrose and Reigns' tag partner tonight - that he has an important choice to make and that choosing poorly will cost him dearly. Strowman takes off the black sheep mask, takes the mic, and says "They all fall down. Run."

Charlotte and Becky have to keep Paige from tearing Sasha to pieces, as Naomi and Tamina get Sasha Banks out of harm's way.
Byron Saxton interviews Seth Rollins. He considers Monday night the lowest point in his career, thanks to Sting. He says that his statue was a symbol of his status as a legend, and says Sting's attempts at mind games are just him digging his grave, and he plans to crush his career much like Sting crushed his statue. As for his reamtch with Ryback, he requested it be a lumberjack so that the doubters can see that Ryback wouldn't have beaten him if it weren't for the distraction from Sting. At Night of Champions, he plans to retain both the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and the WWE United States Championship against Sting and John Cena, respectively. Suddenly, Sheamus shows up, and tells Rollins he may have three matches, as he can't decide when to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase and says Night of Champions sounds like a tempting time to do that.

Gettin' RAW - Monday Night RAW recap for September 7, 2015
During the pre-show, The Miz talks with Cesaro and tells him that he can make him a breakout star, and turn the "Cesaro Section" into the "Cesaro Nation." Cesaro appears to shake hands with The Miz, but then nearly breaks it, and tells Miz that he's the last person he would ask for help. He then challenges Miz to a match later tonight in order to show him how he connects with the WWE Universe.
Seth Rollins shows up to start tonight's show. He gives the city of Baltimore, Maryland a reality check, saying that before him, cashing in the Money in the Bank Briefcase at WrestleMania was a pipe dream, Brock Lesnar was invincible, and that people were waiting for someone to topple John Cena off the top of the WWE mountain, which he says he did when he beat Cena at SummerSlam and became WWE World Heavyweight and United States Champion at the same time. He says that Baltimore, a city not known for greatness, now knows what greatness is thanks to him. He then focuses on Sting, who he still claims stole his statue that was meant for the Raw after SummerSlam and had the audacity to put his hands on the WWE World Heavyweight title. He says that at Night of Champions, Sting has the opportunity to validate his entire career, but Rollins himself has the opportunity to crush it and make sure he never goes for the World Heavyweight title ever again. He then focuses on his United States title defense against John Cena, also at Night of Champions, thanks to Cena's rematch clause. He says that 2015 has been his year, and Night of Champions will be his night, own Sting and John Cena just like he owns the ring and the WWE Universe, successfully defend both of his titles, and get his statue if that's the last thing he does, saying it belongs ringside next to the commentary table. Sting then appears on the TitanTron, saying the statue doesn't belong there and that it belongs with him. Sting then says that Seth Rollins is the man...the man without a statue. He says the statue is with him, and he taking's good care of it. He dares Rollins to come and get it before the TitanTron goes black. Suddenly, Sheamus shows up. He says Seth Rollins looks a little agitated, but Rollins says he's just looking for his statue. Sheamus says Rollins sounds stupid, and Rollins says Sheamus looks stupid. After a Ronald McDonald joke between the two, Sheamus then reminds Rollins that he can cash in on him with the Money in the Bank on him at any time...especially at Night of Champions.
Seth Rollins meets with Stephanie McMahon, looking for Triple H to see if he has a plan. Triple H suddenly shows up, and both Triple H and Stephanie tell him he's got this. He tells Rollins not to worry about Sheamus, and that Sheamus will have his hands full tonight with Randy Orton. As for the statue, he should focus on his title defenses at Night of Champions more than the statue, which is why Rollins has been set up with two matches tonight. The first one is a Champion vs. Champion match with Intercontinental champ Ryback, and the second one is Champions vs. Challengers as him and The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) team up against The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) and John Cena.
Sasha Banks beats Paige thanks to the distraction by Naomi and Tamina.
Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns beat The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor). After the match, Braun Strowman appears on the TitanTron. He doesn't blame Ambrose and Reigns before being afraid, for he is destruction. Bray Wyatt shows up and says to take this as a warning for them and anyone who teams with them, as the apocalypse awaits them at Night of Champions. Luke Harper simply says "Run."
Renee Young interviews Ryback. Ryback plans to be a fighting champion, especially tonight. He then calls Seth Rollins a weasel, even though he is a thoroughbred in the prime in his career, though the later point won't stop him from beaing Ryback tonight. Kevin Owens shows up, eating an apple and wishing him good luck. Ryback tells him he's full of crap, but Owens tells him he looks a little hungry and tells him not to bite off more than he chew.
During Seth Rollins vs. Ryback, Sting appears on the TitanTron, telling Rollins he - and his statue - are waiting for him. This distraction gives enough time for Ryback to recover and beat Rollins with an inside cradle. After the match, Sting appears on the TitanTron again, this time just to taunt Rollins by putting a Sting mask on the statue.
Seth Rollins is looking for Sting backstage when The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) shows up. Seth is about to yell at them when The New Day notice that Edge and Christian show up, still angry that The Authority attacked them the last time they appeared on Raw and remind him they didn't get the job done. Seth leaves when Edge tells him to finish what he started and finish him off right now, saying he's got a lot on his plate, then both The New Day and the team of Edge and Christian have a trombone vs. kazoo battle...until The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) show up, telling The New Day that they've talked to Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, and that The New Day have a rematch next week against The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil)...and the winners face The Dudley Boyz at Night of Champions. They then preview their new song, "Get the tables," with help from Edge and Christian.
Summer Rae is in the ring. After a video package recapping all that's gone down so far, Summer says that the past week has been the most horrendous week of her life and at the center of it all, there is a man who she claims is the "true victim" of all this that she feels the need to apologize to. That man, according to Summer Rae, is Rusev, and she asks him to come to the ring. He does, and Summer tells him that she owes much to him, and inspired her to pose for this month's Ironman magazine, among other things. She mentions that she let Dolph kiss her, and she might never forgive herself for what happened as she apologizes. Rusev almost immediately accepts her apology, then says that Summer is the true victim here due to "Ziggler's American lies," which have "also been fed to Lana." He refuses to accept Lana is not here because of a broken wrist, and says she's not here due to a broken heart.

The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) beat Los Matadores (Fernando and Diego) after Diego repeatedly tells El Torito to get off the ropes and slaps him for not listening, allowing The Dudleys hit to hit a Dudley Death Drop on Diego. After the match, Fernando turns on El Torito, and The Dudleys can't believe what they're seeing.

She plans to throw a "Bellabration" next week to celebrate this fact...until Team PCB (Paige, Charlotte, Becky Lynch) shows up. Charlotte says she loves a party, but is slighted the fact that she - and Team PCB - weren't invited. Her petition to face her for the Divas title before the record can be broken has been granted, and she plans to take the title before the record can be broken next week. This starts a brawl between Team Bella and Team PCB, where PCB easily stand tall with a Figure Eight to Nikki.
John Cena and The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) beat Seth Rollins and The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Big E). After the match, Sting appears on the TitanTron once again...and it turns out that Sting was outside the building in front of a garbage truck the entire time. He pushes Rollins' statue into the back of the truck, and the statue easily gets crushed. Rollins is absolutely livid.
Seth Rollins shows up to start tonight's show. He gives the city of Baltimore, Maryland a reality check, saying that before him, cashing in the Money in the Bank Briefcase at WrestleMania was a pipe dream, Brock Lesnar was invincible, and that people were waiting for someone to topple John Cena off the top of the WWE mountain, which he says he did when he beat Cena at SummerSlam and became WWE World Heavyweight and United States Champion at the same time. He says that Baltimore, a city not known for greatness, now knows what greatness is thanks to him. He then focuses on Sting, who he still claims stole his statue that was meant for the Raw after SummerSlam and had the audacity to put his hands on the WWE World Heavyweight title. He says that at Night of Champions, Sting has the opportunity to validate his entire career, but Rollins himself has the opportunity to crush it and make sure he never goes for the World Heavyweight title ever again. He then focuses on his United States title defense against John Cena, also at Night of Champions, thanks to Cena's rematch clause. He says that 2015 has been his year, and Night of Champions will be his night, own Sting and John Cena just like he owns the ring and the WWE Universe, successfully defend both of his titles, and get his statue if that's the last thing he does, saying it belongs ringside next to the commentary table. Sting then appears on the TitanTron, saying the statue doesn't belong there and that it belongs with him. Sting then says that Seth Rollins is the man...the man without a statue. He says the statue is with him, and he taking's good care of it. He dares Rollins to come and get it before the TitanTron goes black. Suddenly, Sheamus shows up. He says Seth Rollins looks a little agitated, but Rollins says he's just looking for his statue. Sheamus says Rollins sounds stupid, and Rollins says Sheamus looks stupid. After a Ronald McDonald joke between the two, Sheamus then reminds Rollins that he can cash in on him with the Money in the Bank on him at any time...especially at Night of Champions.
Seth Rollins meets with Stephanie McMahon, looking for Triple H to see if he has a plan. Triple H suddenly shows up, and both Triple H and Stephanie tell him he's got this. He tells Rollins not to worry about Sheamus, and that Sheamus will have his hands full tonight with Randy Orton. As for the statue, he should focus on his title defenses at Night of Champions more than the statue, which is why Rollins has been set up with two matches tonight. The first one is a Champion vs. Champion match with Intercontinental champ Ryback, and the second one is Champions vs. Challengers as him and The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) team up against The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil) and John Cena.
Sasha Banks beats Paige thanks to the distraction by Naomi and Tamina.
Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns beat The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor). After the match, Braun Strowman appears on the TitanTron. He doesn't blame Ambrose and Reigns before being afraid, for he is destruction. Bray Wyatt shows up and says to take this as a warning for them and anyone who teams with them, as the apocalypse awaits them at Night of Champions. Luke Harper simply says "Run."
Renee Young interviews Ryback. Ryback plans to be a fighting champion, especially tonight. He then calls Seth Rollins a weasel, even though he is a thoroughbred in the prime in his career, though the later point won't stop him from beaing Ryback tonight. Kevin Owens shows up, eating an apple and wishing him good luck. Ryback tells him he's full of crap, but Owens tells him he looks a little hungry and tells him not to bite off more than he chew.
During Seth Rollins vs. Ryback, Sting appears on the TitanTron, telling Rollins he - and his statue - are waiting for him. This distraction gives enough time for Ryback to recover and beat Rollins with an inside cradle. After the match, Sting appears on the TitanTron again, this time just to taunt Rollins by putting a Sting mask on the statue.
Seth Rollins is looking for Sting backstage when The New Day (Kofi Kingston, Big E, Xavier Woods) shows up. Seth is about to yell at them when The New Day notice that Edge and Christian show up, still angry that The Authority attacked them the last time they appeared on Raw and remind him they didn't get the job done. Seth leaves when Edge tells him to finish what he started and finish him off right now, saying he's got a lot on his plate, then both The New Day and the team of Edge and Christian have a trombone vs. kazoo battle...until The Dudley Boyz (Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley) show up, telling The New Day that they've talked to Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, and that The New Day have a rematch next week against The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O'Neil)...and the winners face The Dudley Boyz at Night of Champions. They then preview their new song, "Get the tables," with help from Edge and Christian.
Summer Rae is in the ring. After a video package recapping all that's gone down so far, Summer says that the past week has been the most horrendous week of her life and at the center of it all, there is a man who she claims is the "true victim" of all this that she feels the need to apologize to. That man, according to Summer Rae, is Rusev, and she asks him to come to the ring. He does, and Summer tells him that she owes much to him, and inspired her to pose for this month's Ironman magazine, among other things. She mentions that she let Dolph kiss her, and she might never forgive herself for what happened as she apologizes. Rusev almost immediately accepts her apology, then says that Summer is the true victim here due to "Ziggler's American lies," which have "also been fed to Lana." He refuses to accept Lana is not here because of a broken wrist, and says she's not here due to a broken heart. Dolph Ziggler shows up, saying that their attempt to drive a wedge between her and Lana aren't working, and that Lana has asked him to send Rusev a message: a super kick to Rusev's jaw. Rusev and Summer immediately retreat.
Randy Orton talks with Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns before his match.
